Chapter 441: Chapter 318: I am the Creditor! (Seeking Monthly Ticket)_2
From that moment on, everything changed.
Xu Yin let the curtain fall.
He closed his eyes, silently listening to the sound of the cartwheels. When he opened his eyes again, the cartwheels had stopped.
The residence where he once lived looked exactly the same as before.
Since the marriage agreement with Yongping, he had purchased his own house and had never returned here.
However, Xu Yin was quite aware of its subsequent history; after he moved out, the Liang Family reclaimed the residence.
As the Liang Family did not lack places to live, this house was locked up again, never to be used.
"Open the door."
The guard climbed over the wall and opened the door.
Xu Yin stepped through the door, surveying the courtyard.
It was a two-courtyard residence, larger than the usual ones. In the front yard stood a decorative screen wall, with flowers and trees planted at the four corners. There was a well in the corner, and under a large plum tree beside it, there was a set of stone tables and chairs.
Behind the plum tree was a moon gate, crossing it led to the kitchen.
Xu Yin sat down on a chair, lifted a tray covered with thick dust on the table, and uncovered a teacup, its color long faded.
"Have them wash it and boil a pot of water. There’s wood, a stove, and an earthenware pot in the kitchen."
Since he left and the residence hadn’t been used, all these utensils should still be here.
Soon enough, the guard set up the stove and started a fire to boil water.
The remaining guard stepped forward: "Master! If we don’t act soon, it will be too late..."
It was a matter of life and death now; what they should be doing was quickly coming up with a plan to retreat, not sitting here boiling water and brewing tea!
Xu Yin, as if sitting in his own study, rested an elbow on his knee and looked at them: "The Liang Family is very close. Conveniently, the Liang Brothers are currently not at the mansion. Do you know what to do?"
The guard paused for a moment, then straightened up: "Understood! Liang Chen’s son, Liang Xuan, is young, doesn’t know martial arts, and is the lifeblood of the Liang Family!"
Xu Yin’s gaze darkened: "Within an hour, it must be done!"
"Yes!"
Half of the guards immediately retreated, turning around in unison and exiting the door!
The ones moving quickly had just stepped over the threshold when they suddenly froze!
Immediately after, each drew their swords and stepped back!
Revealed in the gap formed by the retreating guards, a figure appeared.
Though possessing unparalleled beauty, her face was cold; though her frame was delicate, she carried a long sword, exuding a faint, murderous aura.
"...Fu Zhen?!"
Xu Yin’s facial muscles twitched, his back stiffened.
Fu Zhen, carrying her sword, stepped across the threshold, her gaze fixed straight on him. "I would have never guessed Vice Minister Xu was so nostalgic!"
"How did you know I was here?"
Xu Yin asked, standing up.
He had never seen Fu Zhen like this and had never imagined she could appear this way, but at this moment, a wave of terror involuntarily surged from the depths of his heart! The shadow before him instantly overlapped with the one in the depths of his mind!
"I thought with your cunning mind, you would have realized that the ease with which you left the palace was us intentionally letting you go!"
Xu Yin pressed his lips together.
The guards exchanged glances, shouted "Kill!" and then raised their swords to surround Fu Zhen!
However, at the same time, the long sword on Fu Zhen’s shoulder had already touched the ground, and just as it was about to land, she had already leapt into the air!
"Dare to bully my fifth aunt, I’ll blast you to pieces!"
Liang Xuan shouted as he charged in from outside, two thunder bombs in hand, hurling them into the midst of the assailant guards!
With two loud bangs, about a third of the twenty or so guards were blown away! The remaining batch quickly thrust their swords toward Liang Xuan. But before the swords reached him, Liang Zhi, who had rushed in behind Liang Xuan with a large contingent of General’s Mansion guards, swept their swords aside with a swing!
"Brother Xuan! These bastards were plotting to take you hostage, you deal with them!"
Fu Zhen landed, her sword pointing at the Xu family guards: "Round up all these people!"
The Xu family guards, who had not been injured in the blast, immediately retreated to the courtyard walls and guarded Xu Yin’s flanks!
Liang Xuan shouted angrily, stuffing the remaining two thunder bombs into his arms, and stomped his foot: "Bring a stick for this young master! I’ll beat them to death one by one! How dare they make me a target? Do they take me for easy prey?!"
